The well dug right under Garibaldi Square,in the Municipality of Cantalupo, collected spring water on site.A survey in 1988 showed that the well was built of leaf bricks with a perfect seal at the top, open at the bottom for water to flow in as it reaches the fixed and constant level determined by the principle of communicating vessels. The well has a depth of 36-40 meters and is filled with water for 6 meters, is circular in shape with a diameter of about 1.50 m. The municipality used this well for various uses such as washing the streets and sewers until the arrival of running water.
